Greetings -

I've been moving right along with the new release of fedora-ds on rhel4
using the downloaded 7.1 rpm. I hoping that I just missed this, but is
there a way to automatically increment the uidNumber for posix accounts -
so when a new posix user gets created, the next uidNumber get's assigned
to the new user? I accomplished this with phpLdapAdmin and openldap -
phpLdapAdmin had function that would search for the highest uidNumber and
increment it by 1 and populate the uidNumber attribute. If this doesn't
exist yet, is there any chance of making that a feature request - either
that or a uidNumber pool which keeps track of the last uidNumber used.


      
This sounds like a function of phpLdapAdmin, not the LDAP server.  I
haven't used phpLdapAdmin, but if it works with Fedora DS, then you
should be able to use that feature as well.
    


Any chance of making this a function of the console? I'd rather use the
console - as it does almost everything needed and then some.
Ok, I see.  Sure.  I would love to get a list of features of other LDAP administration tools that are not supported by the Fedora DS console.
1) Support auto-increment of uidNumber (other attributes?  gidNumber?)
2) Support for shadowAccount host based access restriction (feature of DirectoryAdministrator)
I haven't had
much luck getting phpLdapAdmin working with fedora-ds (I've had some
objectclass violations when creating new users - haven't spent much time
trying to figure that out as I like the console much better).
I'd like to get this working - can you post the error messages you're seeing?  And access and errors log.
